Students are introduced to the anatomical framework and functioning of the interconnected body systems of domestic animals. Emphasis is shared between anatomical structure and the body's homeostatic measures, depicting the mechanisms that balance and maintain the body's normal ranges. In each system, students investigate clinical examples as they pertain to veterinary care, highlighting body landmarks and exploring the anatomical pathology of commonly encountered diseases. Prerequisites: Admission into the Veterinary Technology Program. Note: Students will only receive credit for one of ANHT 1690, VTEC 1593 and VTEC 1693 (both must be taken) or VTEC 1590.
